I’m having some difficulty overlaying text on a plot. I’m using the “text” method of the “figure” class like so: p.text(x=100, y=100, text={“field”:“Hello World”}). Unfortunately, it shows up on the plot as NaN. I can’t find any additional insight in the documentation, so I thought I’d ask here. What’s the best/preferred way to create plot text strings?
pass it in as a list and it works:
p.text(x=100, y=100, text=[“Hello World”])

Excellent! Works like a charm - thank you!
Let me ask a follow-up question. I’m following the Unemployment example (http://bokeh.pydata.org/en/latest/docs/gallery/unemployment.html), and what I’d like to do is superimpose text on top of the rectangles. The text I create, however, is hidden behind them. Is there a transparency setting, or a foreground/background control?

Note, I have not tested this with your example, only referring to past things I have done.
It matters in what order you render the objects, so if you put the text part at the bottom of your script eg) after you do the rectangles, then the text should render above them in the plot.

Jonathan,
I just did a trivial example to prove that point.
(mine is in an ipython notebook)
#note in this example you will see the text as it is rendered after (and above) the rectangle
import bokeh.plotting as bp
p = bp.figure()
bp.output_notebook()
p.rect(0,0,15,15)
p.text(x=3, y=3, text=[“Hello World”])
bp.show(p)
vs.
#notice here you will not see the text as it is rendered before (and thus behind) the rectangle
import bokeh.plotting as bp
p = bp.figure()
bp.output_notebook()
p.text(x=3, y=3, text=[“Hello World”])
p.rect(0,0,15,15)
bp.show(p)
